Nikon camera rubber cover panel pealing off....Glue recomme

Postby haring on Mon Jan 09, 2017 5:29 am

My Nikon dslr camera rubber cover panel is pealing off.... It happened to me the same with my old Nikon. It seems to be a permanent problem with Nikon cameras. Do you have any glue recommendation? The glue needs to be flexible enough and keep the rubber panel on the metal housing of the camera....
Thanks so much!

In my experience, the consensus seems to be that, although it's a simple problem, there's no readily available adhesive that can rectify this issue.

Take it a local repair shop.

this is the stuff specified in the Nikon Repair manuals. Otherwise a good wetsuit material adhesive also works well. If you were in Sydney i would lend you my tube of super-x :)
